Information technology is all around us – at work, home and on our mobiles. Communication networks and software systems are becoming more and more interconnected as we expect to access services and applications anywhere and anytime. Scientific and technological advances are therefore required to develop secure, reliable and trustworthy information and communication technology (ICT) systems and services. The goal of this strategic partnership is to respond to this challenge and to the increasing demand for specialists in the area of security, reliability and trust in information technology by developing an international joint Master’s programme in information security between the participating HEIs, all of which are leading institutions in this field. In order to reach this goal, the project leaders will closely collaborate in designing and adapting a common curriculum, focusing especially on the employability of future graduates, the use of ICT methodologies and the recognition procedures between the participating HEIs. Regular transnational project meetings will be held to this effect, alternately in Luxembourg, Warsaw, Lisbon and Kiev. In addition, regular virtual meetings (e.g. through Skype) will ensure the continuity of the collaboration and regular short-term staff exchange through Erasmus + Key Action 1 will help strengthening the relations between the project partners and fostering an improved mutual understanding of each HEIs teaching environment. In addition, a five-day Intensive Study Programme will take place every year with the participation of Master students and teaching staff from all the European partner institutions. These ISPs will offer participating students the opportunity to benefit from the specific expertise of teachers/researchers from the partner HEIS and to work together in multinational groups. At the same time, they will allow teaching staff members to exchange views and put some elements of their jointly developed curriculum into practice, thus ensuring immediate student feedback. A joint workshop at the end of the project will act as a multiplier event, allowing the project partners to present the jointly developed curriculum but also to initiate further future cooperation, in particular through joint research activities in the field of information security and in related areas. In order to improve the employability prospects of future graduates and ensure that the newly developed curriculum meets the requirements of the labour market, partners from the private sector will also be associated, in particular through the University of Luxembourg’s Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust (SnT), which works in close cooperation with industrial partners and the existing partnership programme for the Master in Information Security at the Universidade de Lisboa.
